I don't know who did your bowls, but they are nice. The mold-blown bodies remind me of some of the things made by Aureliano Toso and AVeM. I searched for some examples and found one in mezza filigrana on eBay (#280412356466). The eBay offering is likely a Aureliano Toso piece. The lines of the filigrana piece are sharper, but I thought you might like to look.

Pricing for Italian glass on the secondary (internet) market always seems incredibly... arbitrary... to me at the best of times, especially the loosely-attributed items with pricetags in the £1000s. :huh:

I much prefer my Scandianavian comfort zone where most things are signed and fairly fixed in price.

Some of the stores are very good with pricing, but more are starting to look like crazy folk are running them. The Murano market is struggling right now. Part of it, I'm sure, is the recession. Part is the cycling of the marketplace. I also believe that the overly optimistic pricing that is going on is discouraging people from looking, particularly resellers who like to buy on the internet. From what I see, the Italian glass market has taken a bigger hit than the other countries in the past year. (It seems the American art glass market has actually gone up.)
